Company Sellers

MBS service proposition is designed to disrupt the traditional company broker market. We deliver a fully managed service on each client engagement without exception. Our service offering is also often nearly half as expensive as a standard investment bank.

The MSB Commitment

Selling a privately owned enterprise that has often taken years to build can be a highly emotive, challenging, and sensitive matter. MSB work intimately with each client to gain a detailed understanding of the entire business operation and consult with each client around a specific set of goals, agreeing a rigid strategy “to execute” for all stakeholders affected.

Our Managing Partner has previously started, built, sold and bought companies in a variety of sectors.

MSB are not only able to source interested corporate acquirers and “broker deals”, but we also provide (often invaluable) corporate consulting expertise and deep market intelligence.

In our experience many business owners whilst experts in their roles of running their own companies are often not fully knowledgeable around merger and acquisition deal structures and the inherent obstacles and risks associated with a company sale process.

Our Managing partner has brought together a team of experts that he has worked with throughout his entrepreneurial career extensively. These relationships have been cultivated up to global partner level within the big four management consulting firms with a view to disrupting the traditional company broker market. Our managed service is supported by an industry leading M&A legal firm and a panel of corporate finance specialists.

MSB are committed to work tirelessly to achieve the best financial outcome for the owners whilst ensuring full legal protection throughout the entire process pre and post-sale. All potential obstacles linked to achieving a “successful outcome” have been carefully thought through and planned for in advance.

Through our global network of M&A consulting teams we can often source buyers from the most unlikely of places to bolster our UK network where necessary. For example, our Managing Partner has previously worked in the far east, middle east and latin America. He can often link UK businesses to opportunities that other UK company brokers simply cannot access.

Ready for Sale?

It is very common for MSB clients to request help with the preparation of their company for sale, after learning more about the M&A markets and drivers – this is where MSB excels, to maximise shareholder value.

Company Valuation

There are many things to consider when assessing the value of your company. For example, future financial performance, strength of brand, client base, management team experience and skills, synergies with a potential buyer and company trading history. Here at MSB we help you prepare your company in a way which maximizes its market value and makes for a much smoother transaction avoiding potential issues during the due diligence phase of sale

Managed Service

Selling a privately owned enterprise that has often taken years to build can be a highly emotive, challenging, and sensitive matter. MSB work intimately with each client to gain a detailed understanding of the entire business operation and consult with each client around a specific set of goals, agreeing a rigid strategy “to execute” for all stakeholders affected.

MSB work closely with a wide range of large (often global) corporations, including PLC, PE and venture capitalists.
Our corporate clients are highly varied in type and size within the environmental sector, and all have their own individual board strategies and varied appetites for growth through acquisition.

If you are selling or buying a company there are always serious, highly complex considerations to take into account. Quite often the correct skills do not reside internally to properly analyse all aspects, impacts, challenges and so on to successfully complete a transaction for all stakeholders.

Our larger clients may often require corporate finance to complete on an acquisition. As part of the unique managed service offered by MSB for Merger and Acquisition activities we are able to shape and facilitate the most complex of deals through the provision of corporate funds in a highly efficient and competitive manner.

When buying or selling a company the very nature of these transactions can be extremely perplexing for the non-legal mind. Significant liabilities and future financial risk can easily occur if this process is not managed correctly.
